Susan is a multiple Emmy award winning news producer, she is a recent recipient of the Edward R Murrow award and a recent inductee into the broadcasters hall of fame. She was let go from CBS in Philadelphia because they hired a new station manager and he felt the need to clean house. You folks in Houston are lucky to have her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17428954.post-78951515638173267182016-09-08T13:36:27.416-05:002016-09-08T13:36:27.416-05:00You protest too much about them having talented pe...You protest too much about them having talented people.
